Boss e Heidegger: a apropriação do fenômeno da angústia pela Daseinsanálise

Abstract

This work has as its general focus the Daseinsanalysis: to analyze the contributions of Martin Heidegger and Medard Boss to understand the anguish phenomenon, in view of the problem of its conceptual determination. Heidegger considers the anguish as a fundamental affective tone, which opens the being- there to its own can being, that is, for its dispersion originate into its possibilities on the there. Boos, however considers the anguish as a narrowing of possibilities, asserts its pathological character and argues that anguish must be eliminated through psychotherapy. This conflict happens despite Boss have sought next to Heidegger philosophical foundation to his: the anguish, analyzed phenomenologically, clinical activity. The dissertation faces the problem indicated by the following question: exposed phenomenologically, the anguish has a pathological or fundamental affective character? The main objective of this work will be divided in two ways: first seeks to understand the anguish in Martin Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenological philosophy, and second how this understanding provides a theoretical basis for Medard Boss's Daseinsanalysis. This main objective implies some specific tasks, like to examine the appropriation of the concept of anguish by Boss; seek convergences between the two proposals; return to Heidegger's philosophy to examine and to which extent clinical psychological performance could be sustained by fundamental ontology, ethodologically, we proceed by investigating the concept of anguish, as presented by Heidegger in paragraph 40 of Being and Time . In addition to this main work, the fundamental concepts of metaphysics will be used: World, finitude and loneliness and what is metaphysics?, to then confront Boss's writings, specifically with the book Anguish, Guilt and Liberation: existential psychoanalysis essays. It is hoped to achieve a more refined philosophical foundation with Heidegger's phenomenological analysis of anguish, distancing itself from psychological conceptions that understand anguish negatively and pathologically.
